- Dear CAPE, Stop enabling frac’ers! Calling again for yet more study (after decades and many hundreds of studies already) and regulation is synergy, which only aids frac’ers. No regulation or study can make frac’ing safe or return the massive volumes of water lost permanently from the hydrogeological cycle. Besides, companies just ignore laws and regulations, and regulators break laws and regulations letting them, *and* bully and abuse the frac-harmed, further aiding frac’ers. August 29, 2024

After decades of lies and delays, and $billions raped out in profits, Alberta’s tarsands industry presents its toxic waste lakes clean up plan: Raise them 30 metres, make them bigger, to assure catastrophic failures emptying the toxic contents into the Athabasca watershed. Bingo! Companies save tens of $billions in mandatory clean-up costs they (and Kochs et al) want to keep for their rich pockets (thus why the deadly lakes have not yet been cleaned up and never will be) August 13, 2024
